Green Chili, Corn and Golden Potato Chowder

Green Chili, Corn and Golden Potato Chowder

Baby it’s COLD OUTSIDE……  Happy Fall Y’all!  Need a cold weather comfort chowder? WHO doesn’t LOVE a spicy, CREAMY chowder this time of year!

Oddly enough one day in mid-October it was 32 degrees and snow was expected; WHAT? Even though we had not fully enjoyed the fall season I quickly jumped into WINTER ACTION and whipped up this Green Chili, Corn and Golden Potato Chowder.

This chowder was SO GOOD and really hit the spot on a cold “Fall” day!

It was also SO EASY and took no time at all.  I only had to step away from the fireplace for about 30/40-minutes!  I like to make a BIG batch of stuff like this for warm-ups but you could half this recipe for one/two meals.
